CIC Video (pronounced "kick video") was the licensed distributor of Star Trek VHS releases in the UK and Australia in the 1980s and 1990s. A partner company of Paramount Pictures, CIC released episodes of The Original Series, The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and Voyager, typically in a two-episode-per-tape format. It also released all the Star Trek motion pictures up to and including Star Trek: Insurrection in "complete" boxed sets, as well as on individual tapes.
The company also produced themed boxsets, including:
- Star Trek: The Next Generation - Q Continuum
- Star Trek: The Next Generation - Borg Box
- Star Trek - Crossovers Set
- Star Trek: The Next Generation - Data Box
- Star Trek: The Next Generation - 10th Anniversary Collector's Edition
- Star Trek - Greatest Battles
Shortly after the end of the Next Generation, a set of TV movies was released, for which all the two-part episodes of that series were edited together to produce feature-length episodes. The last in this set ("All Good Things...") featured the uncut version of the episode for the first time - the original release was of the two-part syndication version, which had had some scenes removed (e.g. the meeting between Picard and the elderly Q in the future timeline).
CIC Video was superseded by Paramount Home Entertainment in 1999 following the company's dissolution; the latter company maintaining catalog number continuity across the titles.
